Son of Noah and Tzila. He was born on March 19, 1952, in Bnei Brak. After his birth, the family moved to Bat Yam, where he grew up and was educated. In his parents’ home, which was a religious and national home, Chaim Ze’ev had two virtues: love of people and love for the people and the state. These were expressed during his adolescence. At the age of 5, he began attending the Akiva elementary school in his neighborhood. When he was in fifth grade, he used to travel to Tel Aviv every day to Tel Aviv. He went to study in Bat Yam, where he opened a Torah class at the Tachkemoni school, where he completed his elementary studies. He continued his studies at the “Nehalim” high school yeshiva where he became very attached to his friends. He was a member of the Bnei Akiva youth movement in the “La – Hagshama” nucleus in Kibbutz Lavi. From a young age his cheerfulness and good temper were conspicuous. He had a grace on his face and never laughed with a smile. He was filled with joy when he was able to have a sad Lev and help any failure. However, he was endowed with independence and strong character, and as he matured, these characteristics became more and more apparent. He always chose to take an independent path and persevere in spite of the pressures exerted on him. After a stay at a Bnei Akiva labor camp at Kibbutz Lavi, he began seriously thinking about the kibbutz as a way of life. After his fall, a letter was found among his belongings, from the time of his studies at the Nehalim Yeshiva, which was sent to a rabbi in Tel Aviv, whom he asked to meet to consult on the correct way to go. A few months before the matriculation exams he decided not to take the exam, saying, “There are more important things and if I want a matriculation certificate in the future, I will do it when I feel the need for it.” Decided and did. Another decision he made was to move forward to enlist in the army and enlist at the age of 17, in order to go out with all the members of the nucleus. At that time, he was busy with his nuclear energy and was the link between the nucleus and the kibbutz. At the end of July 1969 he was drafted into the IDF and joined the Nahal Brigade. In all his letters from basic training, he does not complain: “Everything goes, thank God, all right.” He writes: “The training is difficult, but with great will you can overcome it.” His connections with the home and the family were strong. He often visited his parents and his letters did not stop. Although he was younger than the rest of his friends, he had a great spiritual maturity and a spirit of volunteerism. He and his friends established the Masua outpost in the Jordan Valley, in the first line of fire. He wrote to the family only about the developing agriculture: “The settlement is developing from day to day: in one field they have already sown and are engaged in irrigation, and I hope that soon the entire area will be green and wonderful.” Only after that his friends came and told him that his work was security in operational activity beyond what was required of him and almost did not engage in agriculture, he aspired to integrate into kibbutz life because that was his goal in going to the religious Nahal, and he saw it as a contribution to the development and prosperity of the State of Israel , Despite the fact that the conditions were not always very comfortable, Chaim Ze’ev would pay his debt to the Creator at all costs and always be among the first to pray, and the qualities of volunteerism and devotion that were inherent in him motivated him to be among the first to volunteer and help the builders of the fortifications along the Suez Canal. Even though he was the youngest of the members of the group On his last visit to the house, on the Sabbath before leaving for the ditch, his father asked him not to volunteer and to do only the commandment. Haim-Ze’ev: “Father, this is not a Polish or a Russian army, and we are not afraid. The commander in chief and all of us after him. “He also volunteered to take part in observation posts, which were under constant shelling, in addition to the fortifications.On the 20th of Sivan 5730 (June 20, 1970), he fell in a heavy enemy shelling, while he was in an observation post. He was laid to rest in the military cemetery in Kiryat Shaul. In a letter of condolence to the bereaved family, the unit commander wrote: “The fall of your son on the first line of which the IDF is responsible left us, the commanders and comrades in the unit and nucleus, an empty space that will not be forgotten. Haim Ze’ev was very enthusiastic about the idea of the Nahal, which combined security and settlement, and thus saw his way to the future – to realize the idea of the sickle and the sword, which he symbolized. , As an equal fighter among the other members of the IDF, and was the first of his comrades to volunteer to leave, and instead lost his life. ” After his fall, his friends published a pamphlet in his memory bearing his name, including the words of friends, friends, teachers and educators; The parents put a Torah scroll in his memory for the central synagogue in Bat Yam; The worshipers of the synagogue decided to dedicate the Ark to his memory. The inscription on the coffin reads: “Dedicated to the memory of Chaim Zeev son of Tzila and Noah Rosenblum, who fell on the defense of the homeland on the banks of the Canal on the 17th of Sivan 5706”.
